0:00.0	Welcome to Mortification of Spin, the casual conversation about things that count with Carl Truman, Todd Pruitt, and Amy Bird.
0:25.5	Mortification of Spin is a weekly podcast from the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals.
0:30.6	Let's join this week's conversation.
0:32.8	Thank you. Well, thanks for joining us on Mortification of Spin today.
0:48.1	We have a bully pulpit for you today.
0:50.1	Now, I've got to tell you right up front that it is Amy and I taking the reins on this one because Carl, our friend and globe-trotting celebrity, is in Australia, and he did not want to record at midnight his time.
1:03.0	I know. I know. It's a little bit of a wimp. But we have something special for you today. One of the things that we've talked about doing in the past, and I don't think we've hardly done it, maybe just once or twice, is to deal with some listener questions. And we've

1:20.5	ones that are very challenging, some that are so controversial. I'm not about to touch them,

2:12.0	You heard it here on Mortification of Spin.
2:14.6	As we all know, Amy is a huge fan of wrestling and all of the other violence sports.
2:19.6	And I think that she would agree with me. Amy, do you dare to disagree? Do you dare to disagree with that?
2:27.0	Dare. I dare. How do you dare? Well, we need to talk about a real sport first.
2:32.0	Oh, come on. You telling me that those guys are not athletes.
2:36.9	I know we have some friends on Twitter who will, you know, be ready to hang me for saying that one or bring the firing torches out for me.
2:44.9	But it works.
